Long and Short Reviews
Lia had always been the good girl, following the rules and playing it safe. But when her fiancé cheats on her Lia finds the strength to not only walk away from him – but from her carefully set up, boring life. In a new town and new state, she meets Jacob, an ex-tattoo artist and everything she’d avoided in her carefully cultivated life. But unlike her ex-fiancé Jacob sets her heart on fire and makes Lia weak in the knees. Can she take a risk on Jacob? This is a steamy hot, sexy story full of explosive chemistry. Jacob and Lia hit it off almost immediately and even though both of them expected to only have a one night stand, neither could deny the attraction that burned between them. I was really impressed that Jacob didn’t come across to me as just another “tattoo artist bad boy”. I was thrilled to find he was a complex character with a number of different layers. I was also impressed that while Lia might at first appear to be just another good girl testing out her wild side, there was plenty of plot and characterization to make me feel like it wasn’t just a token effort. I thought the author did a great job weaving the story together with a number of different parts together, particularly given the shorter length of the story. I finished this book with a real feeling of having got a lot of bang for my buck (so to speak). The author put a good amount of plot, characterization and sex into the short length and I was really impressed with the good pacing and balance of all these aspects. A fun and sexy quick read, this was a great story I thoroughly enjoyed and I’ll eagerly be looking for more by this author.
